I love this bag so much! It’s durable, functional and so easy to travel with. I appreciate that it’s not like your typical clam shell travel bag that opens in two even halves. The Kartta bag peels open which is great for when space is limited!

Use And Care Instructions
General Use
The Kartta is designed and manufactured to function as both a carry-on backpack and a checked bag item. Although we cannot guarantee that every airline will for every airplane permit it to be carried-on, we have gone to great lengths to meet as many airline carry-on requirements as possible.
Helmet Sling
How to Use: Remove the sling from its zippered pocket located on the front of the bag and attach it to the two surface mounted buckles on the top of the bag. Slide the helmet into the sling with the front of the helmet pointing downwards. Adjust the helmet sling straps to secure the helmet against the bag. Do not use the Helmet Sling with airline baggage check carriage.
Airline Baggage Check Precautions:
- Do not leave straps hanging from the bag when placing it with airline baggage check.
- Do not use helmet slings with airline baggage check carriage.
- If the bag includes Stow-Away Straps, ensure the straps are fully tucked-away.

Just what I needed for working the lifts. Carries my boots, (ski boots, snowboard boots or my work boots) depending on where I start for the day. Also fits extra socks, gloves, hats, jacket and my food that I need. Plus a few necessary items for the day. Should work nicely for those ski trips in the future. Great bag.
I looked at a lot of different "Carry-On" ski boot bags and this bag is the best, most well thought out bag out there. The main interior section holds you ski boots and depending on your size of boot (I'm a 28.0), can hold my gloves goggles, soft fleece face masks, etc. There is also two zippered pockets in the main section where you can put your Outdoor Tech Chips ear buds or other small items, cords, etc. The padded back area is thick and very comfortable. There is a large zippered area right behind the padded back area for your 16" laptop or files. The large top section has around 2-3" thickness where you can store more clothes or toiletries or whatever you think you need to carry on in case your bags get delayed or lost. There is even a zippered interior pocket on the outside bottom that out comes a ski helmet strap that connects to 2 buckles with compression straps (if you want to take your helmet). What differentiates this bag from other ski bags is that it is a true Carry-On bag that is only about 8" think stuffed. Will fit overhead very easily and is very comfortable on your back. It even has a flap on the back to slip it through your handle on your rolling luggage along with a water bottle slot. If you really want a comfortable "Carry-On" bag that will easily fit overhead, this is it!
I ended up purchasing a Kartta Travel Bag along with a Kayda bag…..Both bags will definitely help with our family trips. The price of the Kartta is perfect for the product…it’s a great looking bag with lots of room to carry on boots along with some other gear. I will end up buying another Kartta bag for my daughter and all her trips. Nice product..
Having your luggage get lost by an airline won't ruin your ski trip - unless it's your boots that get lost. This beautifully designed bag is carry-on sized and large enough for your ski boots and other essentials. And my 30.5 boots fit perfectly!
